Gunnar Nelson Back in Action

Icelandic mixed martial arts (MMA) athlete Gunnar Nelson will return to the UFC, the world’s largest professional MMA organization, on March 8 after a break due to injury. He will come up against Omar Akhmedov from Russia in London, mbl.is reports.

This will be Gunnar’s third UFC fight. He was scheduled to compete against Mike Pyle in Las Vegas in May but had to pull out due to a knee injury. Gunnar was involved in a car accident in October but escaped relatively unscathed.

Gunnar remains unbeaten in the UFC.
